Daily Makeup

admin — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 09:23:52 +0000

In the daily make up we remember to use the quality products and choosing important cosmetic who care the skin and health.For daily purposes, powder cosmetics are preferable as they keep the shine under control and have lesser preservatives and skin irritants than liquid ones. We should avoid to use expiry date of cosmetics.But the important that is to wash and clean the brushes regularly.Pencil eyeliner and eyebrow pencils that are wax based should work for daily use and they can be cleaned off using only water. Light earth tones not only give you a natural look but are less likely to cause skin irritation than the darker colors.For a quick pedicure, scrape the dead skin off the soles of your feet after shower using an emery board, rub them over with lotion or olive oil or petroleum jelly and push back the cuticles of your toenails. To maintain them, wear socks all the time. If socks make you feel hot, cut the toe section and ankle section of your socks. You can do a quick manicure in a similar fashion too and maintain them by wearing socks or gloves at night.

Wash Face Properly

admin — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 07:02:35 +0000

Face washing is often the core of beautiful face. Remove every trace of make-up/cosmetic on your face. Use cotton ball and moisturizing cream to avoid damaging your skin.Use lukewarm water. Avoid using too hot and too cold water that can dry out your skin. This will also open the pores for deeper cleansing.Avoid strong or harsh soaps/ cleansers. Strong soaps can dry your skin and strip off natural lipids. Choose soap that are mild if you prefer soap, or you can always choose cleansers that are soap- free, non- comedogenic, and mild like Cetaphil, Burt Bee’s or Neutrogena.Use an alcohol- free toner on your face. It should make your face feel smooth and refreshed. Astringents and toners with glycolic or alpha hydroxy acids work the best for toning the face. These acids actually can reduce the pore size, and help avoid ingrown hairs. They are aggressive and have quick results. Remember to look for a product that is not photosensitive (sensitive to light).Finish off with moisturizer to replenish the natural oils that has been lost. Moisturizing is a necessity. Again, the product with the least amount of chemical additives is the best. Always use a light moisturizer on your face after cleansing. For an intensive moisture treatment use pure vitamin E, or aloe vera oil.

admin — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 06:47:25 +0000

Nail polish remover not only wipes off the old color but also the grease from the nails and makes the new color coat stay put for longer period of time. Apply thing coat of nail polish, let it dry and then apply another coat. Even if you want a glossier effect, go for more than two thin coats rather than a thick coat of polish as it dries sooner and lasts longer and do not chip off easily.

your nail polish has chipped to an extent that touchups are of no use, better use the remover rather than trying to hide it under a coat of nail paint that makes the texture of your nails took uneven.

Beautiful Eyebrows Tips

admin — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 06:16:22 +0000

Perfect eyebrows almost transcend the beauty of the face and make an immediate visible impact in a makeover session. Not many women have been endowed with that perfect brow so most of them have to resort to many other procedures to attain the desired shape or reach nearest to it such as plucking, tweezing and waxing the brows. Here are some simple tips .

Spray a little hair spray on your brows and brush them using your toothbrush to keep them in place.
Before tweezing your brows, you must prepare your skin by wiping the brow area with a cotton ball soaked in astringent. The cooling effect numbs the skin for sometime and thus, you do not feel much pain.
It is important to use the correct shade for your brows. Fair women can use blonde shades while olive colored women should choose tawny or brown. Dark African-American women can use gray shades.
You could try eyebrow waxing, which is a very fast way to get rid of all unwanted hairs. This is best done by a professional, though. Then there’s eyebrow threading. This is always done by a professional. They take thread and wind it around your unwanted eyebrow hairs.
Pluck your brows immediately after a hot shower, or immediately after steaming your face. You could also apply a hot towel to your brows for a few moments before plucking them. If you have been regular with plucking and have just a few hair to pluck, you needn’t apply steam, but if there is a lot of hair that has to go, steam softens it up and opens your pores, so the hair will come out easily without hurting you too much.

Lips and Lipstick

admin — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 05:58:23 +0000

Lips and eyes are the most important focal points of your face so one must pay special attention to these areas while doing makeup. Here are some additional tips for your lips that you can use:

You can also highlight your lips by using a light film of eye shadow color coordinated with your lip color in the center of the upper and lower lips.
If you have thin lips, use light shades to make them appear fuller. Define the lip using the neutral lip pencil from slightly beyond your natural lip line and then apply lipstick covering up lip defining line. Another trick is to apply white shadow on center of both lips over lipstick very lightly and spread it gently.
If you want the lip color to last longer, once the lipstick is applied, blot your lips and set the color and remove excess of lip color. Then you can apply a thin coat of loose or pressed powder and apply another coat of lip color once more..
The nude bare lip looks can be obtained by using neutral pink lip color that matches your skin tone. Pale colored women can go for light orange color with a pinkish tint while olive skin can use brownish bronze shade. Avoid lip liners as you don’t need the harsh lines. Add clear gloss to the center of your lip and you are ready.
In summers, you may have those dreaded dry cracked lips. Simply use your toothbrush to get rid of the dead skin gently and apply lip balm generously on them to heal them soon.

admin — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 05:32:17 +0000

Mascara has the power to make the eye lashes look thicker and also makes your eyes look attractive. The main secret of applying mascara is to first apply it to the upper lashes starting from one corner to another corner of the eye. But sometimes this application way looks too strong. Find below some tips for applying mascara properly to make them look dashing.

Apply mascara to your lower lashes evenly using downward strokes to separate the eye lashes.
Mascara is applied from the underside by holding the wand horizontally parallel to the eyelid and the brush is rolled slowly in the upward stroke. For lower lashes, one has to be more careful so as not to smudge the under eye area and the wand is to be held vertically and mascara is applied from side to side.

.
Black mascara can be used by anybody at anytime
though blondes should only use it for bright night makeup. Thin and short brush is best as it is easier to control and gets to the corner of the eye easily.
Applying mascara only on the upper lashes lend them a dramatic touch
, while applying it lightly on the upper and lower lashes, make the eyes seem wider. A gel-based mascara enhances the lashes while thickening mascara looks more dramatic and adds volume to your lashes.
